GORUCK GR2

No matter your size, the GR2 travels hard and well and complies with TSA size requirements for carry-on bags. Its simplicity, functionality, and focus on organization take inspiration from Special Forces medical rucks. It is overwhelmingly the favorite ruck of GORUCK Cadre.

Packing GR2

SIZING GUIDE

It’s more about usage. Both the 34L and 40L are travel rucks, both are TSA Carry-On compliant. The 34L doubles as a very large dayruck (think: shoes + lots of electronics, too many for GR1). If you’re 5’8” or under, we recommend the 34L.

PRIMARY FEATURES

Special Forces Grade Materials

The materials we choose are proven to thrive in war. YKK Zippers perform despite Middle East sandstorms, and 1000 denier CORDURA® is the preferred material for Special Forces rucks due to its strength to weight ratio and durability.

Badass American Construction

High stress points are strength tested at over 400 lbs. GR2 is capable of holding more weight than any human should ruck with.

TSA Carry-On Compliant

GR2 is a suitcase on your back. Pack everything you need and it still fits in the overhead compartment.

Opens Flat

Easy to pack and organize. Special Forces medical rucks share a similar design.

External Slant Pocket

Slant pocket on the front of the ruck provides quick access to keys, snacks, and other small items.

Bombproof Laptop Compartment

Your laptop costs $2,000, that’s why we made the best, and toughest laptop bag ever built. The huge separate compartment next to your back is extra reinforced to securely take a laptop (of almost any size) into combat. And you can get it in and out easily.

Outer Compartment

Four internal pockets: two large mesh zippered pockets, one small go-to zippered pocket and one built-in Field Pocket pocket for additional volume.

Built-In Field Pocket

We built in a medium sized pocket with some additional volume capacity. It's like a built-in Field Pocket because there are two small mesh elastic pockets inside it.

MOLLE Attachments

4 rows of external and internal MOLLE webbing let you customize GR2 how you want. MOLLE is the same system used by our Armed Forces to attach life-saving sensitive equipment, such as ammunition.

Inner Compartment

Three internal pockets just like GR1: one large elastic pocket, one large mesh zippered pocket and one small go-to zippered pocket.

Frame Sheet

A removable, hard plastic frame sheet stabilizes the bombproof laptop compartment and allows you to carry more weight comfortably. If there were no frame sheet, the ruck would curl in on itself too much when you cinch it down on your shoulders.

False Bottom

We built a “false bottom” in the bombproof laptop compartment so that when you set your ruck down, your laptop won’t even notice. This adds labor to the build of the ruck, but it’s necessary for max function.

Silent Zipper Pulls

YKK zippers with silent, glove friendly zipper pulls constructed from parachute 550 cord. There is no good reason why zippers should make noise when rucking (or assaulting). Ours don’t.

Extra Padded Straps and Handle

Shoulder straps and top handle are extra padded to carry heavier loads more comfortably.

2" x 3" VELCRO

Allows you to customize your GR2 with the patch of your choice.

Rainproof

By military-spec submersion tests, waterproof means you could repeatedly submerge something and its contents would stay entirely dry. Our rucks are highly water resistant aka rainproof.

Customer Reviews

Our Satisfied Customers

Because it stores away to such a tight package, I have it with me all the time. It’s great when you’re out on walks with the dog and you want a clean surface to rest on. Stick it in the washing machine and you’re good to go again. It’s also a good makeshift wind breaker/wrap. If the park bench is wet, throw on the Matador blanket and viola! Also gather and wraps things up in a makeshift bundle. Line the car seat when you’re sweat and don’t want to spend time cleaning the seat later (same goes for a messy dog in the car). Trunk liner for messy payloads like bags of soil, bike etc. Plenty of uses even for a city dweller.

It's really nifty and compact - but the travel adaptor needs a bit of getting used to (and you might want to be gentle when you do so) but overall really great and handy! Delivery was fast and good service by the team at The Expedition.

I use the Power Packer everyday. I love that it has a spot for everything. While I feel that it is a little on the bulky side and a little larger than I had hoped it would be, I realize it also has to fit my laptop charger and therefore cant be any smaller than it is. Highly recommend

Been using the bag for just over a week and I love it. The bright inside trim was a lovely little touch. Appears well built and strong yet folds small enough to fit inside my small travel wallet bag. The pockets are well thought out and useful. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a travel bag that is lightweight and portable without wanting to compromise on safety.

Bought this before my Eurotrip and was really glad I made the investment. Stand out product and I barely had any form of neck ache when I got off the plane. Stuffed it into my backpack and I was good to go!
